Homework assignments, schoolwork, studying for tests - mostly (or completely!) done when you come to pick them up or progress made toward their identified learning goals
Prizes/rewards for attending Homework Club or hitting learning milestones (Pokemon cards, squishmellows, candy - the kids make sure we always have the “coolest” prizes around).
Engaging discussions and “lessons” during group Homework Club and with learning coaches (Some recent discussions have included thoughts on the color of Fern’s hair from Charlotte’s Web, whether one should be Team Gale or Team Peeta from The Hunger Games, and the speed at which one can answer on beat).
Parent-approved snacks so they can power through learning
A safe, comfortable environment with learning supplies (study materials, access to Accelerated Reader, books, art supplies - even paper mache and those things you don’t want at home, and worksheets)
Kind, caring, helpful learning coaches to guide and support themMore time to spend with the family when they are done
It varies from student to student, but tutoring typically helps kids who:
~Are struggling with a specific subject
~Having a hard time with deadlines and completing homework on time
~Have missed school or experienced poor teaching that has caused them to be behind
~Need accountability for reading and writing
~Needs help studying
Students in our Homework Help program often see results immediately. Otherwise, results will vary based on need and frequency of visits.
It is recommended that students in our tutoring program attend tutoring at least once per week. This depends on how many subjects or the volume of homework the student must complete.
You can tell it’s working if your students assignments are being completed and his or her grades are going up. (It might sound like a dream at this point, but having another adult on your student’s “team” and giving them focused help - works!)
We will talk with you to discuss any concerns you may have about your student and make recommendations about the best program for them.
Through Grace Place we offer subject-specific tutoring and homework help as well as SAT/ACT college prep and Summer Clubs. We share our owner and learning coaches with our neighbor, LearningRx.
LearningRx offers one-on-one brain training designed to strengthen cognitive skills. These cognitive skills include attention, memory, logic and reasoning, processing speed, auditory and visual processing, and word attack. These skills affect how a person learns and performs. LearningRx strengthens and increases neural pathways in the brain and increases IQ an average of 15 points in kids and adolescents.
What we noticed is that kids often needed help with homework or specific school subjects in addition to brain training - that’s when Grace Place was partially born.
If your student is struggling because of missed school, or if they need more focused time with a specific subject or homework assignments, a Grace Place program is probably best for your family. Grace Place can help your child strengthen academic skills, master new concepts, and build study habits for academic success.
If your student has been present in school and/or has received all of the relevant information, but is still struggling, brain training may be a better option. Learn more about LearningRx programs.
Unused hours can be transferred to the next month or refunded if requested within a month.
If tutoring or Homework Help isn’t enough to get a handle on academics, we will offer a Cognitive Sills Assessment to see if Brain Training is a better fit. It’s possible that your student may need brain training instead of homework help or tutoring if their academic performance is not increasing.
In between leading multiplication drills and handing out goldfish, we share growth-minded learning and parenting tips in our semi-regular newsletter.
